Gen. 2 — The Creation of Man pt. 1 (Guest: Jared Verwiel)
In this episode, Daniel is joined by Pastor Jared Verwiel. They begin to discuss Genesis chapter 2 and the creation of mankind.
The Day that Never Ends (Gen. 2.1-3)
Human beings were created for something more than the 9-5, day-in and day-out toil of life. There is more purpose to life when we include community with God, resulting in a divine rest in all that we do. In today’s episode, Daniel looks at the final day of the Creation Narrative and considers why this day is so particularly significant in comparison to the previous six days.

Subdue the Earth (Gen. 1.26-31)
Daniel reads the account of the Creation of Man, as told in Genesis 1. He discusses the plurality of God, the concepts of what it means to “subdue” and “rule,” and the “imago dei.” Remember to share with a friend and subscribe to keep up with each episode!
The God Who Orders (Gen. 1.3-25)
Daniel continues through the Genesis narrative, examining the six days of creation. We ask questions about the nature of the passage, how it interacts with our scientific culture, and how we apply it to our lives today as it would have applied to the original audience.

Where the Story Begins (Gen. 1.1-3)
The Bible is not a random collection of books. It tells one cohesive story that begins in Genesis 1.1. Daniel begins the process of walking through Genesis 1-3 to find the foundational story which runs through all of Scripture. Like, comment, and share with a friend!
How Should Christians Think of Work? (Guest: Pastor Billy Spalding)
Work is often something we try to escape. At some point, the old adage “it builds character” that rings in our heads just doesn’t cut it for us anymore. Yet, God designed work. So how should Christians view work? In this episode, Daniel is joined by Pastor Billy Spalding to discuss exactly what Scripture says about work and how it benefits our relationship with God.
What is the Bible?
Where did the Bible come from? How do we know it is reliable? Many of us base our lives around the teachings from the Bible… we build our relationships, our understanding of God, and our understanding of the world around this book. But how do we even know that it is actually trustworthy in what it teaches? Daniel spends some time today giving a condensed explanation of where the Bible came from, how the Church determined which books belonged in the Bible, and why it is reliable for every person in every age.

What 1 John Tells us about Idols
Daniel spends some time reading through the first few verses of 1 John and asks what idols we face in our lives — including one idol that almost all of us worship, but most of us are unaware of.
What is Theology?
When it comes to talking about “theology,” most of us immediately feel uncomfortable, simply because we’re not entirely sure how to engage in such conversations. This is completely normal, and more people feel this way than are willing to admit. In this episode, Daniel answers the questions: What is theology? How do I do theology? And why should I care?
